This update guide was made by Bob and friends prior to RivaTuner support for the 4800 series.

When there's no simple click software way, do it the overclock way, flash it.

what you need to get is a regular pci card and flash via a bootable USB drive or a floppy disk. check http://www.techpowerup.com/ for more info on that.

i have bricked a card or two in the past and always recovered the bad flash by re-flashing using a PCI card as the main output for video.
